There does not seem to be lots of interest in this, but I would also find it useful to have frequency of use influence the scoring/sorting of items. I run into issues fairly often with applications where I wind up launching the wrong one because some obscure application is the first result. For example if I type "update" to try to run Software Updater, I instead get an application that has Update in the title but that I have never intentionally run. Or I often want to type "calc" to get Calculator, but instead wind up with LibreOffice's calc which I also rarely use and don't mind having to click or use more keypresses for the exceptional cases.
Another way to approach it could be to remember that, for me, calc means Calculator rather than LibreOffice Calc. Collect the stats to know that 9 times out of 10 when typing calc I end up launching Calculator, and give me that. That way rather quickly after using the dash users have created their own shortcuts and it does what they want. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/752773 Title: dash should sort results (apps, files, ...) by relevance To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/752773/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
